I think you need remove all the unconfigured packages using the following commands, but be careful not to remove the current kernel version you are using. You can find that out with the uname -r command.
sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-3.16.0-52-generic
sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-generic-lts-utopic
sudo dpkg --purge linux-generic-lts-utopic
sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-3.13.0-66-generic
sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-3.16.0-031600-generic
sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-extra-3.16.0-52-generic
sudo dpkg --purge linux-signed-image-3.13.0-66-generic
sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-generic
sudo dpkg --purge linux-image-extra-3.13.0-66-generic
sudo dpkg --purge linux-generic
sudo dpkg --purge linux-signed-image-generic
sudo dpkg --purge linux-signed-generic
and then to fix package dependencies,
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -f install
After it you can get back to what you were doing, and the sudo dpkg --configure -a command should not give you any errors.
